This marks Naruto's first encounter with the Nine-Tails. He doesn't anticipate convincing the Nine-Tails through this brief conversation. Nevertheless, there's plenty of time to spare.
For now, he's only revealing a small secret, not rushing into significant matters. He's carefully shaping the conversation, aiming to foster sincerity and understanding.
Given that the Nine-Tails was responsible for the Fourth Hokage's tragic demise, can Naruto truly let go?
Several factors come into play. Firstly, while he recognizes his parents in this world, he lacks the emotional foundation to feel a strong connection. Family ties haven't had a chance to develop.
However, this isn't the primary reason. He fully intends to avenge his parents in the future, whether it's Uchiha Obito or Uchiha Madara.
As Naruto mentioned earlier, the true culprits are the two Uchihas, with the Nine-Tails being nothing more than a pawn. Both of its attacks on Konoha Village were orchestrated by the Sharingan.
Indeed, when Obito extracted the Nine-Tails, it was under control, and Obito aimed to obliterate Konoha Village.
This raises the question: What drove that individual to destroy Konoha Village? Insanity?
Moreover, Naruto currently requires the power of the Nine-Tails. Even though he has already activated Ashura's Chakra, his physical abilities and strength are rapidly improving.
Who wouldn't want more power?
The Nine-Tails, even if only half of its power, surpasses that of the other tailed beasts. Half of the Nine-Tails might even outmatch the combined strength of the other tailed beasts.
It's truly extraordinary.
In the original storyline, Naruto, as the perfect Nine-Tails Jinchūriki, managed to deflect the Tailed Beast Bomb of the other Tailed beasts.
It's a testament to his strength.
Furthermore, Kuruma must remain within his body, or he would face certain death. Not to mention, even as the Ten Tails Jinchuriki, Sage of Six Paths, when he extracted the Ten Tails and sealed his brother on the moon, he met a similar fate.
In any case, Naruto's decision was well thought out. He had already strategized his approach. So, Nine-Tails, we have all the time we need.
Naruto had resolved not to dwell on the Nine Tails any longer, so he readied himself for it to rest within his body.
However, Naruto was not one to sit idly by; he had no intention of venturing outside needlessly or resorting to hostility without cause. Instead, he began a daily exercise regimen right in the comfort of his home's living room.
First on his list were a few sets of push-ups. After three years of unwavering dedication, he could now manage 1,000 push-ups per set, followed by 500 single-handed push-ups.
It might seem exaggerated, but Ashura's Chakra had bestowed upon him incredible benefits, granting him the strength of an average eighteen-year-old at the tender age of three, on par even with a fifteen-year-old ninja. Yet, his physical form remained that of a three-year-old.
By these standards, Naruto rose after completing his push-ups and continued to enhance his physique. He initiated a series of squats, leaping gracefully around the room in circles.
He had grown accustomed to life in this new world. When he first crossed over, it was a challenging adjustment. Without a smartphone for entertainment, no familiar possessions, and nobody to converse with, he resorted to exercising as his primary activity.
As long as he established a strong foundation by committing to this daily routine, he found there was plenty to occupy his time.
After squats and leaping exercises, Naruto moved on to complete 1,500 sit-ups. These were the core components of his current exercise regimen, all convenient activities. He longed to run, but his previous circumstances hadn't allowed for it. However, he believed he could arrange it in the near future.
"I just don't want to run within the village. They're clearly bothered by my presence, and I'd rather avoid unnecessary interactions," Naruto muttered. He suspected that rumors about him had begun to circulate through the village.
With this in mind, he resolved to minimize any potential disturbances in the days to come. Besides, he had already prepared some food, and by economizing, he could avoid going shopping for a week.
Oddly, despite his rigorous exercise routine, his appetite didn't increase as one might expect. Thanks to Ashura's Chakra and the awakening of the Nine Tails, his Chakra was steadily augmenting his power, granting him extra energy and rapidly improving his physical fitness.
"It's time to raise the intensity of my training, like adding sandbags when I run and mastering Chakra. Although I don't fully grasp the theoretical aspects of Chakra, as long as my body understands how to use it, that's enough," he reflected.
The theoretical knowledge remained elusive for an orphan like him at this stage, but he had been acquainted with Chakra for some time. Starting with his Master's guidance, he had gradually learned to harness Chakra. He just needed the specific theoretical insights, but waiting until he entered the Jōnin school for training seemed too late.
He had already decided to leave Konoha Village, possibly seizing the opportunity presented by the Uchiha genocide night. Therefore, he needed to prepare in advance. Departing was inevitable, and since he wasn't tied to this place, he could find a new home without depending on others.
As the day's exercise routine concluded, the evening sky began to dim. Naruto turned his attention to preparing dinner. Despite having spent the last three years in Konoha Hospital, he was no stranger to living on his own, having cooked simple home-cooked meals before crossing over.
Fortunately, his home was adequately equipped with the essentials. After dinner, he engaged in some additional exercises and then headed to the bathroom to wash away the sweat. Finally, Naruto climbed into bed, wrapped in a bath towel, ready for a well-deserved rest.
"I've finally left Konoha Hospital behind. From now on, I can focus on more comprehensive training."
